Earlier that evening, Shakira had driven to Sebastian's penthouse in Brooklyn.

Ever since the invitation for the event was sebt out, she has been waiting for the man to call her and has eveb been trying to reach him.

All to no avail.

He'd blocked every possible means of her contacting him and his security wouldn't allow her come anywhere near him.

She didn't believe that he would replace her with that lady he picked from nowhere. She couldn't believe that he has ended their relationship because of that tramp.

That tramp he picked from the dirt.

She haven't told her parents about their breakup, know they wouldn't take it very well, especially her father.

The main reason she'd wanted to see him, was for him to not bring his mistress to the event because her parents would be attending and she didn't want then to find out in such way.

    Isabel walked into the ladies' room, and she pulled out a small towel from her purse, using it to dry up the spots Sebastian had missed when he was cleaning her up.Luckily for her, the stains of the wine weren't obvious, because of the color of her dress.She just had to wait for it to dry up a little, before returning to the hall.It pained her that she was missing Sebastian's speech, but she'd no other option.The longer she sat there, the colder and more uncomfortable she became.After dying herself the best way she could, she was about to return to the hall, when it crossed her mind to call Brittany and know if the boys have gone to bed.The lady did not pick the call until the third ring, and she was greeted by a sleepy voice."I'm sorry to wake you up. I just wanted to know if the boys are still awake." "No need to apologize, Ms. Hadid. The boys have long to bed." The lady replied to her,"They went to bed shortly after you left with Mr. Bernadotte.""Okay....thank you, Brittan

    Meanwhile Enid was sleeping alone, when she heard an unusual sound outside her bedroom.She woke up with a start, her eyes roaming around the room frantically. She was alone in the bedroom, because Roark had insisted Amelia spend the night with him.They've been sleeping together since the past few days, and it was because of the man.Enid got up from the bed and she tiptoed to the door, placing her ear against it.She expected to hear the sound again, but was met his silence.An eery silence.She was aboit returning to bed, when she heard the sound again.

    Sebastian's face turned beet red with rage as he listened to Isabel's account of her encounter with Damien. It took great effort to have her speak up, as she was sobbing. His eyes blazed with fury, when she did, and his jaw clenched so tightly that it seemed to be carved from granite.His heart was pumping with unexplainable fury."How dare he," Sebastian growled, his voice low and menacing,"I'll kill him. I will fucking kill that bastard."Isabel placed a calming hand on Sebastian's arm, but he shook it off. He was beyond consolation, seeing her in such state and hearing what Damien has tried to do to her.The bastard had tried to touch what belonged to him."I should've ended that bastard when I had the opportunity to. I should've killed then, saving myself all this disrespect." "What did he say to you?" Sebastian demanded, his eyes burning with intensity.Isabel hesitated, clearly not wanting to relive the experience. But Sebastian's gaze was unyielding, and she knew she had to

Mrs. Adeline was first to greet the man, and although he responded, his attention was on Amelia, while Kane was trying so hard to look away from Enid, who was shamelessly throwing him flirtatious smile."Mrs. Adeline, Kane and I are headed into town." Roark's information shocked the three women, but none of them said anything, except to look at each other in surprise."Mr. Thrones---""Don't worry, Mrs. Adeline, it's just to run some errands and we'll be back soon." He explained to the woman who tried to express her concern at the newest developme

    On their way home, Kane drove with Enid, while Roark and Amelia drove the new car.At first, Amelia wasn't comfortable being alone with him, and even offered Enid to join them, but the latter blatantly refused."Go, you drive with your man, while I shoot my shot at his hotshot of a driver."Left with no other choice, she followed Roark into the new car.Despite knowing how to wear seatbelt, he insisted on wearing hers for her, and wouldn't stop asking her if she was alright."I'm fine, Roark. Going faster than you are now, wouldn't hurt me, neithee will it cause any harm to the car, if that is what you are bothered about." She told him for the umpteenth, noticing how slowly he drove, while Kane and Enid were ahead of them by a few cars."Driving isn't my favorite thing to do." He told her,"I'd rather---""Spend your time locked in your study, reading, than go anywhere. I know that already." She completed for him, barely looking his way."I love to read.

    The next day, Damien was in his office, when his secretary, Evelyn, called him to inform him that some officers were requesting to see him."Why?" He asked the lady,"They won't say, sir. They've insisted on seeing you even after I told them that you're busy."Damien's forehead creased into a frown,"Okay. Let them in." He told Evelyn, before ending the call.What could they've to tell him that they'd to come to his office?He thought to himself, patiently waiting for them to come into his office.It must be pretty serious.Seconds later, the door of his office opened and two members walked inside.Although they were dressed in mufti, he could tell they were officers. Their demeanor gave them away, especially as one was looking around his furbished office like he was searching for the slightest clue to an ongoing investigation."Good day, sir." He greeted the men, getting up from his seat and offering a handshake to the man in front, whom he suspected to be the superior, based on

    After Isabel finished at the precinct, giving her statement to Detective Jonas, who promised her that they would look into the matter, she asked Jarvis to drive them to the hospital."Ms. Hadid, are you not feeling well?" Jarvis asked her from the driver's side, concern written on his face as he looked at her through the rearview mirror, while Fowler was seated quietly beside him."I am, Jarvis.""Then, why are you going to the hospital?" He probed, revving the car's engine to life."My niece is sick and I have to go see her." She told him, looking outside the car."I'm sorry." He mouthed, reversing the car out of the parking lot.Fowler didn't say anything to either of them, until they arrived at their destination, about an hour later."Mr. Jarvis, you should stay here and keep watch, while I and Ms. Hadid and I go inside." He told the man, then turned to Isabel,"How long do we intend to stay, Ms. Hadid?""Just a brief visit, Fowler. Did anything happen?" She asked the woman, who

    After ending the call with Detective Jonas, Sebastian called Pierre and gave him the assignment of sniffing Damien Giddorti's ass"Pardon my asking, Mr. Bernadotte, but this is unlike every other assignment you've been giving me?""Yes, I know, but I need every information you can get on that son of a bitch.""What kind of information do you need?" Pierre asked the man, still confused about his request."Have you been told anything about him?""I just received a tip of an alliance that Giddorti Enterprise is pumping Wall Street with drug money, so I need you to help me find out if it is true or not." Pierre wasn't comfortable with the assignment, and he aired it to Sebastian immediately."Mr. Bernadotte, you need to understand that this isn't as easy as you think. Whether or not Giddorti is involved in any illegal activities, busting him would do you no good.""There's always a hierarchy, and trust me, someone like Damien Giddorti can never be at the top of the food chain.

    Sebastian was eager to facilitate the wedding process, and make it happen at soonest.Left to him, they would've gotten married that weekend, but there was a lot of preparations to be made, and Isabel has insisted that he postponed it, because she needed to tell her family about it."The same family who set you up, and nearly had you kidnapped, if not for Fowler's timely intervention?"He wasn't thrilled with the idea of her going to meet them, and that was mostly because they were still in his custody, unbeknownst to her."Despite what they've done to me, they are still my family, and I do not intend to get married without getting their blessings." She was honest with him."I've no friends, nor do I have anyone elsewhere except them. And although they might've wronged me countless times in the past, I don't think it is fair to cut them out of my life just like that, because they saved me too.""And you've done well to repay them every kindness they've shown you. Yet, they continu

    Like Sebastian avowed, he got the lady from the stored fired from her workplace, then got her arrested.Isabel wasn't supportive of his decision, but since he'd threatened to extend the lady's stay behind bar, if she begged him on her behalf, she decided to not say anything to him. However, she showed her displeasure, which he ignored."This should serve as a lesson to anyone who decide to disrespect you." He told her, as the officers took the crying lady away."Now, remind me what it is you wanted to get?"Isabel was quiet for a while, as the crowd dispersed, but a good amount of passerby were looking at them, awed to see Sebastian, his triplet sons and his new girlfriend."Nothing..."He threw her a discerning glare, then took her hand into his,"If I could remember, the Genesis of this misunderstanding was you trying to see if a particular shade of foundation matched you skin tone, right?"Isabel said nothing, prompting Oliver to say yes to the man."I still remember the brand,

    After they left the store, Isabel could tell the boys were in a sour mood, and she didn't know what to say to cheer them up."Boys, do you want to go to the arcade now?" She asked them, hopeful they would say yes, but they didn't."We are fine." "Yeah...I think I'd rather go home."Both Oliver and Reynolds spoke respectively."Boys, I don't think you should be feeling sad about what that lady did, or anything she said to me." She told them, watching their sullen faces."You see, sometime the best answer to give to people who are being intentionally disrespectful to you, is silence.""But, mommy, she crossed the line calling you a lowlife and us, the b word." Alexander argued,"She was being disrespectful to you, but you did not defend yourself. Sometimes, people need to be taught that they can't go around being rude to anyone they see, because they feel like they can.""She needs to be taught a lesson." Reynolds concluded,"One she wouldn't forget in a hurry. Nobody disrespect my mo

    Several minutes later, Sebastian was spooning Isabel whose head was rested against his chest.They were still exhausted from their earlier intense and passionate lovemaking and their hearts were beating in a rhythm."I'm indeed the luckiest man on the planet." He told her, possessively tightening his arms around her petite form."Had anyone told me ten to fifteen years ago, that someday I will become obsessed over a woman and desperately want to make her mine, I would've called the person a goddamn liar."Isabel let out an exhausted, but satisfied sigh."But here I am, at thirty-five, obsessed over you and wanting nothing but to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm the luckiest man on earth.""Likewise me, Sebastian." She whispered to him,"Who could've known that I would end up getting married to the same man I once despised like my life depended on it. But, here I am.""I'm no believer of fate, or destiny, but I think the only explanation to our relationship is destiny. We were

    "What the hell are you talking about, Isabel?" Sebastian questioned her,"Why would you ask me to do that?""Because, I think it's the right thing to do, since we are both about to enter a new chapter of our lives." She explained to him.Now, it was her turn to beg him."I don't care about the both of them, Sebastian, but I do not think that I want us to have a life where we have people like them hovering over us." She continued, taking his other hand into hers."I understand that they must've wronged you in one way or the other, but I need you to let go of everything that happened. I do not want our children to be raised in this rivalry, which would mean passing it to their own children, who would also pass it to theirs, and the circle continues endlessly.""Isabel, what you are asking for is impossible. I owe no grudge against Shakira for what she did, but I don't think I would ever forgive Damien Giddorti for all he has done." He avowed to her,"Do you know what that bastard did

    "I want nothing to do with that son of a bitch who ruined my life." Joan spat, the second Sebastian made mention of Damien Giddorti's name."Trust me, Ms. Lively, I do not want anything to do with him too, but I need the bastard to face the consequences of his actions." He explained to her, "And I saw the file on the rape charge you raised against him three years ago. However, for some reason, which I believe he'd influenced, the charges were dropped."Joan scoffed, staring at her palms which she placed on the table."I know you must be wondering why I am interested in your case, or why I suddenly believe you after all these years. The truth is that, Damien Giddorti has always been a bastard, but recently, he thought it would be funny to assault my wife, to spite me." Sebastian continued, leaving both the scar-faced man and Joan bewildered."Yes. He tried to take advantage of her, despite knowing that she's mine and although I got him arrested, but he was bailed out because there was

    After over an hour of driving around Manhattan, Sebastian and Moses finally found the address they were looking for."Sir, I think you should stay here, while I go in and find the apartment." Moses offered to the man, who was seated at the backseat, staring at him through the rearview mirror."You know what floor her apartment is on?""No, sir, but I will ask around.""Ask them what? You've no picture of her, nor do you know what her name is or what she look like."Moses did not say anything.Sebastian brought out the piece of paper he'd copied the information about the lady into, then he handed it to Moses."That is her name, phone number and address. Although, I do not suppose that the number is still active, because I can't seem to reach her with it."Moses took the paper from the man, stole a glance at it, before he shoved it into his pocket.While Sebastian waited in the car, he stepped down, then made his way towards the several storey apartment building.Once he entered, he
